See Glen Campbell Through the Years [PICTURES]

Songs such as "Rhinestone Cowboy," "Wichita Lineman" and "True Grit" wouldn't be around for us to enjoy without the magnificent Glen Campbell. The singer has been one of the greatest forces within country music -- and, really, music as a whole -- since the early 1960s, and his songs and legacy continue to impact fans all over the world.

Campbell is a Grammy Awards Lifetime Achievement Award winner, an Oscar nominee and a Country Music Hall of Fame member, not to mention a prolific actor and musician and a loving father and husband. Even though Alzheimer's disease robbed him of his memories and abilities before his death on Aug. 8, 2017, he will forever remain an absolute legend.
